Pope Francis compared the cover-up of widespread child abuse within the Catholic Church to ‘toilet filth’ as he used his first day in Ireland to meet with sexual abuse victims and pledged to eliminate the “scourge” of abuse.
On early Saturday evening, Francis spent 90 minutes with eight survivors including those who had been abused by priests and those who suffered appalling treatment inside Catholic-run institutions.
Among those included at the meeting was two people forcibly separated from their parents by a Church-run home.
Clodagh Malone and Paul Redmond said the meeting had been “cordial and polite” and that Francis described abuse in the Church as “caca.”
“Pope Francis condemned corruption and cover-up within the church as ‘caca,’ ” they said in a statement. “Literally filth as one sees in a toilet, his translator clarified.”
‘Caca’ literally translates from Spanish as ‘excrement’.

Condemned by his own lips after yesterday's stunning news.
Words fail.
I missed what he said. Can you summarize?
That's an odd choice of phrase, imho, more of a political polemical kind of phrase.
For years the Catholic Church has interfered with efforts to extend the statute of limitations on sexual crimes against children. Until this changes this so-called Pope should STFU.
Wow. It’s like reading St. Augustine or St. Theresa of Lisieux, he’s so eloquent.
Couldn’t this mean that caca exists in the church, rather than it’s caca that abuse exists in the church?
Way to elevate a conversation Frankie.
And some cardinal condemned the victims for coming forward.
The fake news industrial complex spends all day calling for Trump’s resignation for reasons they pull out of that asses. Francis abetted these sexual abuses, and they hardly care because he’s a leftist.
The cleansing begins with the resignation of Pope “who am I to judge” Francis. He was well aware of the vile homosexual individual cardinals, bishops and priests that were molesting young men and boys. He not only abetted but protected and promoted them.
Talking tough because he’s taking heat. But purposely doing nothing to fix the problem. I assume he’s a pedo too based on his obviously reluctant responses to these situations.
He has talked about coprophilia before.
If Pope Francis was for real he'd do the same to the Catholic Hierarchy Member's that facilitated all of the coverups and actual abuses committed by themselves to. The Pope would be enraged if he were a True Acolyte of Jesus Christ and he'd react accordingly to all of this, not just blow smoke up the arses of the violated Catholics???
The Lord knows it all.
Thus says the Lord GOD:
I swear I am coming against these shepherds.
I will claim my sheep from them
and put a stop to their shepherding my sheep.
Wait a minute! Didn’t he just say in his letter talking about the abuse problem that it all stems from “clericalism”?
Read the FR stories. It’s there.
The Pope is guilty of abetting a massive string of felonies. Why isn’t he under arrest?
You bet Mr. Coprophilia knows a few things about toilet filth.
